Nah, that's dishonest.


Besides this, my previous jobs demanded that you bring a copy of your diagnosis/prescription/etc. for it to count as a sick day, or else you're just skipping work without leave and docked pay and performance accordingly.


That is dumb. Not every illness needs medical attention. It discourages using sick days by imposing a higher financial and time cost on already miserable workers and Should be something only applied rarely on untrustworthy workers.

The flu is highly contagious but doctors can't do shit for it. If you are otherwise healthy literally just rest, and keep hydrated. Getting medical care for the flu as a healthy young-middle age adult is probably harmful more often than not wasting money, extra stress and probably spreading it more.

Same for food poisoning. Unless its an extreme case usually just wait a day or three and it passes. All going to the doctor does is ruin some pairs of underwear and make you doubly miserable.

Both only need medical care usually for the very young, very old or those with compromised immune systems.
